I wonder if anyone has any info on Reginald Harry Weldon - this is the name shown on a 1911 census for High Street, Balsham, Cambridgeshire.
His birth is registered as Reginald Harry Plumb, born 1900 Paddington.
Reginald is shown as the grandson of Robert Plumb, my great-great-grandfather in 1911. I can't seem to find much out about him after that. He is shown as having been born in Paddington, London, and several of Robert Plumb's daughters worked in Paddington as servants. In 1901 he is living with his aunt Mary in Paddington.
Living in Paddington, less than a mile away, in 191, was a musical hall artist called Harry Weldon, birth name James Henry Stanley from Liverpool. I'm intrigued to know if there was a connection. Harry Weldon was a pretty popular performer, and maybe there isn't a real connection, and I understand he didn't start his career in London until 1901. Any info on Harry Weldon's career in London before 1901 (if any) would be useful.
I've done a lot of research on this line of the Plumb family, originating in Balsham, then moved to Stratford, Essex (now London), then to Ponders End, Enfield, where my grandparents Charles & Daisy Plumb lived.
Reginald is proving to be a bit of a puzzle!
